Dollar Extends Gain on CPI Expectations | ForexGen Report

ForexGen provides a unique online trading experience based on our intelligent online Forex trading package, the ForexGen Trading Station, including the best online trading system.

The U.S. dollar extended its gain against other major currencies on Forex today as the investors expect higher April CPI figures from the report that will be released today at 12:30 GMT.

Dollar is now growing for a second day after the weak fundamental indicators were ignored yesterday and the traders reacted on the elevated export and import prices growth. Market participants expect that the fear of the accelerated inflation will prevent Federal Reserve from decreasing the interest rate on its next monetary policy meeting in June.

Market analysts are confident that a CPI reading of more than expected 0.3 percent will insure the dollar from more rate cuts. As the Forex market becomes more fundamentally driven rather than speculatively, higher inflation rate (or at least expectations for a higher inflation rate) will support the USD.

EUR/USD fell down today from 1.5465 to 1.5413 as of 7:46 GMT. GBP/USD declined from 1.9454 to 1.9403 after losing 0.6 percent yesterday. USD/JPY rate is heading up with a daily gain of 45 pips (0.4 percent) so far.



Dollar Will Lose 11% to Yuan in 2008 |Daily ForexGen

According to the research paper, released by United Overseas Bank Ltd., the yuan has a strong chance to appreciate further this year to the total of 11 percent gain against the U.S. dollar in 2008.

The Chinese currency has rose 4.3 percent up this year already, as the government used yuan to fight the accelerating inflation. Suan Teck Kin of United Overseas Bank confirmed in an interview today the statement from the research paperPBoC will strengthen the yuan by about 7 percent before the year’s end:

The yuan is the now the most effective tool that the PBOC has to tackle inflation and trade imbalances.

Yuan may start to rise soon again, even before the Strategic Economic Dialogue between the U. S. Treasury and Chinese officials in June. Then there will probably be a pause during the Beijing Olympics, after which the currency may continue its gaining curve.

The renminbi (another name for the Chinese yuan) stopped appreciating in April and is still trading below its maximum levels — USD/CNY rate closed at 6.9940 today. UOB is expecting this rate to reach 6.6 by the end of the year.

Dollar Rose on Hoenig’s Hawkish Comments | ForexGen


The U.S. dollar rose today during the late Asian Forex trading session, as the traders reacted on the hawkish commentary by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City President Thomas Hoenig.

Hoenig said that if the inflation pressures strengthen in U.S., Federal Reserve will probably increase the interest rates. According to him, the U.S. economy will recover from the current crisis later this year and the Fed will be forced to switch to the price growth.

Apart from the hawkish tone of the Hoening’s comments, dollar growth was also enhanced by the worsening situation in U.K., where consumer confidence fell to the lowest level since early 2004.

EUR/USD fell today after two days of growth seen this week and declined from 1.5532 to 1.5500 as of 7:38 GMT. GBP/USD fell today after two days of volatile bidirectional movement — it went down from 1.9732 to 1.9628.

AUD Stops Growth after RBA Statement | ForexGen Signals


The Australian dollar stopped growing on the Forex market today after the Reserve Bank of Australia mentioned economical growth moderation in its monetary policy statement.

The RBA kept its 12-year high interest rates unchanged at 7.25 percent points today during the scheduled monetary policy meeting ruled by Glenn Stevens.

The Aussie has reached its 24-year record high level against the U.S. dollar recently and traded near that level before the monetary policy meeting. Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Glenn Stevens mentioned that the output growth may moderate this year, causing the currency drop from its high. The drop was limited due to the mention of the remaining inflation risks that leave possibilities for the further rate hikes:

In order to reduce inflation over time, growth in aggregate demand needs to be significantly slower than it was in 2007. Evidence is accumulating that this is occurring. Indicators of household spending have recorded subdued outcomes over recent months, and demand for credit by both households and businesses has weakened… Given the opposing forces at work, considerable uncertainty remains about the outlook for demand and inflation.

AUD/USD fell down today from 0.9465 to 0.9450, while AUD/JPY still fluctuates near its open rate — 99.23.
